Answer:

5

Explanation:

The series is for k = 0 to 4, so k = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4.

That is 5 terms.

-1/2 is inside the parentheses and is raised to 0, 1, 2, 3, 4.

A negative number raised to an even integer is positive.

A negative number raised to an odd integer is negative.

The sign of each term in the series alternates.
